Sue lives in the South West of England and inherited her love of music and poetry from her father. Describing herself always as 'just a poet with a guitar', Sue has been lead singer with several popular bands in the South West of England, offering a diverse repertoire and has also appeared as a solo artist, performing her own expressive compositions at many regional venues on the folk scene. Inspired by real people and actual events and impassioned in her most formative years by such icons as Joni Mitchell and Leonard Cohen; it's perhaps no surprise that remnants of such powerful early influences are still reflected in Sue's song writing today.
